Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the property
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupants of Claymore, with respect to light
What decided it
The proposed dormer and extensions, whilst substantial, would sit comfortably within the rear roof plane and be subordinate to the main roof slope, and would not cause harm to character and appearance or living conditions of neighbours, particularly as the affected neighbour's kitchen/dining area has multiple sources of light and the side window is secondary.
